Elimination of Hazards – Picture This

What’s wrong in this picture? there are two workers working at heights and have any kind of fall protections. Falls are among the most common causes of serious work-related injuries and deaths. If a fall hazard cannot be eliminated, effective fall protection shall be planned, implemented, and monitored to control the risks of injury due to falling.

ALL employers have a duty of care to protect employees from being exposed to serious injury or death while working at heights, including above or adjacent to dangerous equipment or machinery.

Whether you work in a shop, laboratory, office, research facility, medical center or you are just walking on campus, you must be protected from fall hazards.
